Um no, the old testament may dabble into why man is God's chosen creature, etc. but it was realy the Roman pope's that misinterpreted this, making out that the earth was the center of the universe, etc. I don't know too much, but I wouldn't blame the bible completly, sure it created our ethical laws, but towards animals?
Besides, in the times of the bibles, they hardly treated animals worse than we do now, sure we can say they were less concious of animals etc. but after looking at the video, can we really say we are concious?
Also, sacrifice was made out to be not needed in the bible, because Jesus sacrificed himself for us.
I'm realy not trying to convert anyone (I have a freind who does it all the time, I know how annoying it is), but I am deffensive about my beliefs.
